Morocco’s Houses of Representatives and Advisors in Parliament established an ad-hoc thematic committee devoted to the re-evaluation of relations with the European Parliament (EP) Tuesday in Rabat.
According to a statement from the national legislative body, the creation of this committee was decided after a meeting of the Bureau of the House of Representatives for the reassessment of relations with the European Parliament.
“After a thorough discussion, it was decided to create an ad-hoc thematic committee devoted to the said re-evaluation, composed of representatives of both chambers, “said the same source.
The meeting was attended by group leaders and members of the Joint Parliamentary Committee.
This Wednesday, Parliament will additionally hold an important meeting of study and information on the attacks and false allegations made by some parties in the EP against the Kingdom, said the statement.
The decisions come a little over a week after the Parliament’s decision to review its relations with its European counterpart, after the body passed a resolution condemning the Moroccan judiciary’s rulings against certain journalists.
Met with a wave of condemnation in Morocco, the Kingdom has since decided to distance itself from the EU institution pending a review of bilateral relations.
